Only Here to Adore is an artistic research of the interaction between garden owners and plants. It unfolds in three parts. The first part takes place at Landlyst Plantecenter just outside Hjørring in the North of Denmark where Gerner Nielsen interviews garden owners about what they have purchased at the garden center and their hopes and dreams for their summer garden. These interviews form the foundation for developing scores and a choreography for a performance that Gerner Nielsen and another performer will show at Vendsyssel Kunstmuseum in Denmark. The performance is also filmed by Louise Ørsted Jensen and turned into a video work. Curated by Skal Contemporary

Desenvolvimento de investigação artística em teleperformance entre os anos de 1999 e 2001, quando não existia uma taxinomia adequada. As teleperformances do Perforum Desterro partiram da pesquisa da linguagem intermídia da telecomunicação síncrona. As teleperformances foram a prática artística e, paralelamente, subsidiaram o levantamento teórico sobre telepresença realizado como parte de meu doutoramento no Programa de Pós-graduação de Comunicação e Semiótica da PUCSP (COS). O Perforum nasceu em São Paulo das ideias de Artur Matuck acerca dos “Colaboratórios de Mídia e Performance” a serem criados em diferentes cidades. No segundo semestre de 1998 cursei a disciplina Escrituras Eletrônicas, ministrada por Artur Matuck na pós-graduação da Escola de Comunicação e Artes da Universidade de São Paulo, ECA/USP. Entre minhas idas a São Paulo, passei a fazer parte do grupo de pesquisa da disciplina, antes mesmo de ingressar oficialmente como doutoranda em um Programa de Pós Graduação. Parte dos integrantes atuaram no início do projeto Perforum. Paula Perissinoto e Ricardo Barreto, fundadores no ano de 2000 do Festival Internacional de Linguagem Eletrônica, FILE, Tereza Labarrère, Otávio Donasci, o artista criador das videocriaturas, Edson Luiz de Oliveira, Cesar Barros, Suzana Moraes. Outros, como Daniel Seda, aderiram ao grupo mais tarde. O Perforum no ano de 1999 se bifurcou em Perforum Desterro, coordenado por Yara Guasque pela Universidade do Estado de Santa Catarina, UDESC, e Perforum São Paulo coordenado por Artur Matuck pela USP. Os dois grupos desenvolviam colaborativamente scripts como proposição de interação e performance a distância.

Nine research groups from HKU, Hanze University of Applied Sciences, Fontys, and Utrecht University of Applied Sciences are joining forces with UvH and UMCU to bring a new perspective on healthcare through the arts, supported by the SIA-SPRONG grant. Using a transdisciplinary approach, this research group and its partners are developing new methods, practices, and scenarios within healthcare and well-being contexts—not for, but with each other.

Les forces religieuses, politiques, culturelles et économiques influencent le monde moderne. Il s’agit de conflits et d’antagonies bien réels, idéologiquement chargés, qui déchirent le monde dans un contexte de formes virulentes de polarisation idéologique, de nationalisme de droite et de fondamentalisme religieux.

As part of the 'Borderline Physical' PHD Project and the "Spirits in Complexity" PEEK Project, this iteration investigates the auditory landscape of a specific fridge in a specific café in Vienna, Austria. The fridge is captured into a physically informed model, recreating its surprisingly complex sound emissions. This model is presented as an installation on-site, next to the fridge whose current working status is unknown (it was broken recently). At the SAR the model is treated as a musical instrument and freely used in complete disregard of physical constraints, leading up to a musical performance that explores a different form of artistic exploration of our sonic environment.

The theoretical wisdom of the Epic theater derives from the conceptual perspective of Bertolt Brecht toward communication and performing arts in "Der Rundfunk als Kommunikationsapparat" (1932). Brecht's version of the radio reminds the participatory politics in the internet, which he later theorizes for theatre-qua-critique of the aristotelian drama of binding the spectator to the fiction ideologically, in the vicious cycles of pre- learned codes, the traditional and phony wisdoms of clans and classes, where the mere potential for change is to turn into a "petit bourgeois".
